FOR YOUR SAFETY:
WARNING:
Before beginning the installation, switch power off at the service
panel and lock the service disconnecting means to prevent power from being switched on accidentally.
When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a prominent warning device,
such as a tag, to the service panel.
Be sure the oven is securely installed in a cabinet that is firmly attached to the house structure.
Weight on the oven door could cause the oven to tip and result in injury. Never allow anyone to climb,
sit, stand or hang on the oven door.
Make sure the wall coverings, counters and cabinets around the oven can withstand the heat
(up to 200°F [93.3°C]) generated by the oven.

two braces or runners must be installed to support
the weight of the oven. For single ovens, the runners
and braces must support 200 lbs (91 kg). For double
ovens, the runners and braces must support 375 lbs.
(170 kg).
NOTE:
If marks, blemishes or the cutout opening are
visible above the installed oven, it may be necessary
to add wood shims under the runners and front trim
until the marks or opening are covered.
NOTE:
If the cabinet does not have a front frame
and the sides are less than ¾" (1.9 cm) thick, shim
both sides equally to establish the cutout width.
